Changing personality traits
February 22, 2010
My Myers-Briggs has changed over the last eight years. When was first given this test by an Industrial Psychologist at my place of employment I was an ENTP. I took it about five and one half years ago and was an INTP. I figured I was just near the center and was an introvert or extrovert depending on how much coffee I had drank.
I took it again today and here are my results:
|
ENTJ – “Field Marshall”. The basic driving force and need is to lead. Tend to seek a position of responsibility and enjoys being an executive. 1.8% of total population.
|
Free Jung Word Test (similar to Myers-Briggs)

This is the first time I’ve seen percentages given. I’m not surprised I cut the ENT part nearly down the middle, but the swing to the J…that was surprising.
Carmine does a great job of a fast interview getting practical applications for using body language in any setting. I see ways to positively use this with my kids, wife, colleagues, new acquaintances, and old friends.
Tips like how to approach women differently than men. How to use posture to convey sincerity and interest. Even how a quick touch can make a connection that would take three hours to create in normal interaction.
If you want to quickly convey to someone that they are welcome and wanted shake their hand with both of your hands, using your secondary hand to quickly and lightly grasp their wrist, forearm, or shoulder. Each getting more personal as you go up the arm. I intend to experiment with this and see what kind of reactions I get.
